The MRI scan had gone smoothly, the huge machine searching for clues to Paul Doherty’s excruciating back pain. But the technician who then moved Doherty onto a gurney in the hallway inadvertently wheeled him back into the MRI room, doing what should never be done: bringing a metal object into a space radiating with magnetic power. The MRI’s magnet began to drag the bed toward it — with Doherty still on it. The employee shouted for help and two colleagues rushed in. They immediately realized that even the three of them were not strong enough to combat an MRI.
